1. Spring, warmer weather and blue skies. A dry backyard.
2. Spring Break. I have work to do, but there is a spaciousness about the week that is so nice.
3. Ringo and Sam. They’ve been spending a lot more time together. It makes me so happy to see it.
4. Ringo’s final puppy shots, and his cold being over.
5. New ideas for things I can offer, specifically related to wellness in the workplace.
Bonus Joy: Laughing with Eric. Last night I was crying, I was laughing so hard.

1. Dexter. Last night, Ringo was dreaming, growling and barking in his sleep, and he sounded just like Dexter. I had such a strong memory of Dexter, like he was right there, and it made me cry, but I was grateful for it, grateful for Dexter.
2. My piece in Fort Collins Magazine. It’s not many words, but they are mine and in print and I got paid for them. Even so, I’d rather be someone who knew nothing about this particular topic.
3. Ringo’s cold is getting better, never got very bad. In fact, I’d guess that from his perspective there was never anything wrong.
4. Soft Molasses cookies.
5. The first official sign of spring, yellow crocuses.
Bonus Joy: Sweet Sam. There’s still a chance he might have caught Ringo’s cold, but he seems okay for now. We we laughing last night about how we’d like to trade places with him sometimes. When he gets annoyed with Ringo, tired of him, he goes into the living room where Ringo can’t get to him and takes a nap on the couch. Wish we could do that sometimes, just ignore Ringo, let him be someone else’s problem and take a nap.
